What is the scoville heat unit for?
The Scoville Scale is a measure of the heat level or pungency of chilli peppers; the greater number of Scoville units, the hotter the pepper. The scoville scale measures the level of capsaicin, the active principle that causes the heat. The scale ranges from the bell pepper with zero scoville units, through jalapeno's with between 2,500m - 10,000 units, to the hottest chillies habaneros and scotch bonnets between 80,000 - 300,000. One of the hottest chillies was a Red Savina habanero with 577, 000 scoville units. In Februari 2007 the Naga-Bih Jolokia pepper cultivated at New Mexico State University have stood-up to testing, a specimen registering a staggering 1,001,304 Scoville heat units was officially acclaimed by the Guinness World Record as the new worlds hottest pepper. Naga Jolokia is nearly twice as hot as the previous holder, the Red Savina habanerp. Pure capsaicin is 16,000,000 units.
What is the unit to measure chilly heat?
Chilly heat is an oxymoron!Chili heat is measured on the Scoville scale and recorded in Scoville Heat Units. Although the scale is based on the amount of capsaicin in the chili, it is an arbitrary scale. This is because it is an empirical measure which depends on tasters' judgement. Not only that, but after tasting a few chilis in a short spell of time the heat receptors in the tasters' palates get desensitised, and so the rating depends on how early in the process a particular chili is tasted.
